Instructions

1) Take a small ball of paste and roll to a sharp point at one end. Fill the body with this piece of paste positioning the pointed end towards the beak.

2) Roll out another piece of the paste on a non stick surface, using cornflour or icing sugar for dusting.

3) Cut out the bird without pressing the plunger.

4) Now using the plunger, press down onto the bird on a flat surface to join the body to the wings and to mark the feather detail on the wings.

5) Press the plunger again to eject the bird and pinch the beak with fingers to sharpen.

6) Bend the body to curve the breast out and the head up. Fold the wings and tail upwards. Use a flower/leaf veiner to assist with this. Leave to dry on a piece of folded card.
